what NRO is reduced to:

Vice President Joe Biden officiated at the wedding of two male White House staffers yesterday, despite belonging to the Roman Catholic Church, which teaches that marriage is a sacrament that can occur only between a man and a woman.

You do not have to be an opponent of gay marriage or even a religious person to see the contradiction in Biden’s actions. By officiating at this ceremony, Biden demonstrated that progressive politics drive his actions more than his religious identification does, as is also evidenced by his support for abortion. This should disturb even people who agree with Biden’s support for same-sex marriage and abortion.

Here on the Corner, I’d like to say something about Before the Fall. That’s Safire’s memoir of the first Nixon administration. (In the old days, we referred to each term as an “administration.” So, 1985-89 would be “the second Reagan administration.”)

"There was a time in my life when I read gobs and gobs of White House memoirs. This was when I was about 20, I think."

I was wondering what was wrong with this author when I saw his "impromptus" article, which is completely nonsensical and reads like a drug induced ramble.

I think I understand now. At 20, the rest of us had girls.

Dr Krauthammer wheels out "sage advice" for the beleaguered candidate

But I thought yesterday the speech he did outside Milwaukee on law and order was probably the best speech he’s had yet. Delivery is improving on when he is reading, and he restrained himself. And I think it wasn’t as if he was going to win the African-American vote, but what I think he needs to do — and that would go a long way to help — is to try to reassure the suburbanites, the soccer moms, that he is not a racist. That the things he has done in the past are far more benign, that his heart is in the right place. If he can do that — that was addressed not at the inner city, it was addressed at the suburbs — and if he can reassure traditional Republicans who could go for him in the general election, that he is okay, he is not toxic — that would be a big difference.

Uh, OK. Trump needs to convince an all-white audience that's he's not racist, THEN he'll win.

To follow the apparently disinterested soldier-statesman, Eisenhower, and the agile bridge between the Goldwater Right and the Rockefeller Left, Nixon, and the artist of Morning in America, Reagan, comes now the man who will recapture the party of Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt from the faint and ineffectual dissenters from the Clintons and Obama of the post-Reagan years.

guess who:

But Republicans might ask themselves, “What does it mean that George Bush won’t vote for our nominee? What have we done, to lose George Bush? Is it worth it? Is it right?”

My guess is, a decision to vote for Hillary Clinton was painful to Bush. She is the wife of the man who defeated him for reelection in 1992. I bet he has never voted Democratic in his entire life.

And, as I note in my column, he knows a thing or two about the world. He flew against the Japanese — the youngest pilot in the Navy. He was a congressman. U.N. ambassador. Envoy to China. CIA director. Vice president. President. He has had a few intelligence briefings.

He knows the dangers, and he knows the stakes. He may even know as much as Trump.

So, if I were a Republican, I would not just write Bush off, or damn him as a RINO and traitor, etc. I would engage in some “serious self-reflection,” to borrow a term (an annoying one) from President Obama. What have we done to push George Bush into the arms of Hillary Clinton?

I found it somewhat flabbergasting that Hillary Clinton would voluntarily accuse Donald Trump of considering pregnancy and inconvenience. Abortion didn’t come up last night, and yet she managed to remind me of her extremism on this front. I get why she did – that is an awfully painful commercial to watch, her campaign’s, running the videotape of Trump talking about women – but her lack of self-awareness on this issue is telling.
